Technological achievement
In the 2300s, tachyons passed from hypothesis to reality in the wake of Ares University's Transuranic Experiments. In 2332, the first tachyon generation technology was tested, and three years later, a tachyon generator was piloted on Ares Colony's new Deimos Base.
By 2340, Tachyon Generation had become the principal power source for arcology maintenance, and experimentation had begun on translating the massive power generated to thrust. The first tachyon-drive propulsion unit was tested in 2340, and by 2350 the first successful tachyon supralight drive was tested.
